Thematically, who is the best fit for Joker?
the teacher since persona is moid fantasy slop
>>714220969 (OP)Hifumi even though she could do better.
>>714220969 (OP)It doesn't matter as long as she's a cake
If you don't romance every girl, you're playing Persona wrong.
Joker is a blank slate. I liked Hifumi

>>714220969 (OP)Makoto
Mainly because the mommy and daddy of the rag tag group of heroes always belong together.
>>714221191>"The non-canon girl."Anon, please.
>>714221239I always remember her as an Empress
>>714220969 (OP)>Thematically, who is the best fit for Joker?Obviously the one with the fattest ass.
Hifumi is the only logical choice.
Dating a team member would compromise the unit, and Hifumi is the only one his age outside of the team.
>>714221436Did you mean to type flattest?
>>714220969 (OP)His canonical love interest Akechi.
>>714220969 (OP)Hifumi is perfect. She should have taken Makoto's place.
>>714221519Just because Ryuji and Morgana are incels it doesn't mean that Joker isn't allowed to fuck one of the phantom gals
>>714220969 (OP)Ann would be the canon choice if there was one. Half of why I said that is because the first time he sees her he does this "wow she's amazing" look.
She sucks though.
>>714220969 (OP)Futaba is a fake obnoxious gamer girl and Kasumi is a goody goody so anyone but those 2 obnoxious cunts.
>>714223252How can they even kiss with that schnoz in the way?
I have never held hands with a girl.
>>714220969 (OP)Any of them, depends on your interpretation of Joker.
Haru is the best for pure Phantom Thief Joker because their aesthetics match, are both based on French literature, and the second most common love interest for phantom thieves in literature is some rich heiress with no personality who exists to facilitate his exploits and dodge accusations of gay subtext with his rival.
Ohya is surprisingly good because working undercover with journalists to expose the corruption in business and politics is a common "good guy" phantom thief plot.
Chihaya is also surprisingly good if you pay attention to dialogue implying Joker comes from a small town or rural area, so they're both rural kids trying to navigate the big city together.
Makoto would be good for the "delinquent + good girl" contrast, but Joker isn't enough of a real delinquent and Makoto is too much of a hardass for the dynamic to work.
>>714220969 (OP)Atlus undeniably forces Makoto the hardest, and shits on the other girls to push her more. Ann is often the main punching bag to shill Makoto
>>714223994I think seeing the Hulkenberg and Junah dynamic in Metaphor was enough for me to decide I'm done with Atlus's shit forever.
I will not play that game.
>>714221436>>714221542https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNzdOK7MW6E&pp=ygUYbWFrb3RvIHBlcnNvbmEgNSBkYW5jaW5n
I think Ohya fits him best, because she's my personal favorite, and that's what matters most in this game as it's pretty bluntly wish fulfillment.
>>714220969 (OP)>thematicallyAnn. The Lovers arcana is called that for a reason.
>>714223717>Makoto would be good for the "delinquent + good girl" contrast, but Joker isn't enough of a real delinquent and Makoto is too much of a hardass for the dynamic to work.um Im sorry but she has ass therefore canon.
>>714224218I think Ann is unfairly shit on by the writers and deserved better, but you're wrong. Lovers is usually the main punching bag that Atlus hates the most that they use to push their favorite, like Aigis.
>>714224505>you're wrongNo. Lovers are, by far, the best girls in every Persona since P3.
>AigisJust because you have a robo-girl fetish, doesn't mean that toaster is anyone's favorite.
>>714220969 (OP)Think about it logically, if Joker doesn't take Futaba no one will. It's unfortunate but Sojiro needs grandkids you see.
>>714220969 (OP)The perfect shipping pattern so that none of the phantom thieves gets left out is
>Joker/Makoto>Ryuji/Ann>Yusuke/Futaba>Haru/The Cat>Akechi/nobody lol
>>714224663> Lovers are, by far, the best girlsThis but I liked Hifumi a bit better than Ann cuz her VA is kinda shit.
>>714220969 (OP)Ann, Futaba, Hifumi, Kasumi
>>714224895>>Ryuji/Ann>>Yusuke/Futaba>>Akechi/nobody lolbased
>>Joker/Makoto>>Haru/The Catcringe
>>714224895Faggot NPC shipping pattern more like. You know this is just something you do to force Makoto on people, otherwise you would pair her with Akechi
>>714224663I like Ann more than anyone, anon. That does not change the fact that they're constantly trying to shill Makoto and shit on Ann and try to coerce you into not liking Ann. Both Atlus and the fans.
>>714224895Eat shit freak
>>714220969 (OP)Thematically, Futaba given his relationship with Sojiro.
Unless we're talking royal, then Birb
>>714225971Hey itโs you will letโs be glad to know that both got cucked by Sumire
>>714224218Ann literally has a more developed relationship with Ryuji than Joker
>>714221436Someone get her a sandwich
>>714220969 (OP)Makoto for Akira, Ann for Ryuji, Futaba for Yusuke, Mona for Haru (or substitute any number of actual cats), and non-canon non-existance for Sumire.
>>714226152>>714226194The Ann and Ryuji pairing is so fucking dogshit it's obviously done by people who want to sabotage ship other characters away and protect Makoto. Every time it's a Makoto fag.
Ann with Yusuke or Akechi or even fucking Morgana would unironically be more sincere, but I can see exactly the manipulation you faggots are pulling. Kys Makotofags
>>714220969 (OP)Futaba and Kawakami because doing the closest thing he has to incest or fucking his teacher is rebellionpilled.
>>714223361Is this what being raped looks like?
>>714225971I hate Makoto trannies so much.
>>714223503Heads have to be orthogonal.
>>714223649Stay where you are, I'll come jack you off.
>>714226194>Makotofags can't cope with Sumire so they just say "n-n-non canon!!!"
>>714224076I dont remember her name but the brown triclops is the very obvious love interest in metaphor
>>714225971>shill MakotoIf they wanted to "shill" her, they wouldn't have made her as dreadfully boring as she is.
>>714220969 (OP)Unironically Kawakami. The most outwardly taboo relationship that society would disapprove of is actually the most endearing and domestic.
>>714220969 (OP)Why Kawakami is supposed to be a "hag", yet Takemi is not?
>>714226558This sure looks like shilling to me.
>>714220969 (OP)Haru is canon.
Futaba is lifelong sister tier. Ann isn't going to stay in Japan when everyone treats her like shit. She's going to Europe where her parents are. Makoto is WAY too autistic for have a real relationship with. The hags will get bored with a boy. Kasumi isn't canon.
>>714226608She uses beauty products for the wrinkles.
>>714226647Haru is for getting fucked by the cat (who is also fucking Ann) while Joker watches.
>>714221436THAT'S the Student Council President?
>>714226608goth mommy is a different fetish
>>714221691There's no "fit" aside from which character the writers hate and which character the writers like. It being a silent protagonist, essentially means that it's instead an assessment of objective value and "purity" as you can see by polls. If you look at other games by Japanese developers, this becomes all the more apparent.
>>714226732Nobody likes you mona
>>714226608Kawakami is more "plain" so people see her as older. Its funny people disapprove of the age gap with Kawakami and call it grooming when Tae is around the same age and more directly down to fuck.
>>714221691The Japanese ALWAYS rally around the goody two shoes with dark hair. Every single time.
>>714220969 (OP)Kawakami, forever and always.
>>714224895>Ryuji fucks Ann>Morgana gets cucked by the man he hates most in the worldincrediblely based
>>714220969 (OP)he's not enough of a character for there to be a strong answer. people will just say whoever they like most
>>714227436Last I checked Ann ends up with Morgana in the Maruki ending, and thinks Ryuji is gross
>>714220969 (OP)Futaba 100%. People who think sheโs like his little sister arenโt very anime savvy. Makoto would be second place.
>>714227347Anon it's no use, they'll never get it
>>714227604>in the Maruki ending
>>714228174>hate white people>try to look like themAll non whites are subhuman
>>714220969 (OP)Iโll never want to not fuck Futaba
>>714220969 (OP)Is it even possible to tell? Joker doesn't exactly have a personality so it's hard to really say.
On the subject of Persona girls, why is Marie so hated? I romanced her on my first P4 playthrough.
>>714221691>JP nerds prefer otaku girls or plain and boring "girl next door" types because they (mistakenly) believe they actually stand a chance with thoseYeah, tell us something we don't know.
yeah I like Kasumi the most but then again it's a little unfair since I don't really like ANY of the P5 main girls. they're all cunts in different ways. Kawakami > Hifumi > Takemi > Chihaya > Ohya though although I don't mind Ohya, romance with her felt off though like she legit doesn't feel like a romancable target.
Best girl for the protagonist in each of the games I've played:
3: Yukari
4: Rise
5: Sumire
>>714226647>>714228527Haru is the worst choice for the most fitting love interest. Sheโs completely inconsequential to the team, and barely has any personality. What little character she has is stolen from Mitsuru. Her whole arc feels like they stapled it onto the game a month before launch.
>>714220969 (OP)Futaba so they can keep the coffee bar going.
>>714229027>SumireLiterally who?
>>7142290273. Yuko
4. Yukiko
5. Kasumi
>>714228928It's also because they label all of the other girls as whores.
>>714220969 (OP)anne if she had a completely different story to her s link. she wouldve fit for a right hand/ride or die type considering she is more mentally competent than ryuji. and if it werent for her they most likely wouldve killed kamoshida and the phantom thieves wouldve never been the heroes they were perceived as in the game. but in the game when, you romance her, she cones off scatterbrained and a bit immature still.
the only other that works as is i would say is hifune. despite the awkward way you get to know her, you end up being not only the only male friend she has but the only other male that sees her as an equal, and the only other person in general that gives her any agency or self determination.
>makoto is a spaz> the way you get with futaba could be considered grooming in the west (idk if japs would really care about the age gap but him dating her right after she gets over previous trauma is still a bit questionable)> haru is ok but she comes in really late and that thing with her fiance felt really half assed imo> kasumi would be a good fit but she doesnt even see eye to eye with the phantom thieves or even wants to be a part of it> kawakami isnt even realistic for a romance like that>takemi kinda just throws herself at him for helping her> i forget what the fortune teller romance was>ohya was kinda shitty but even so, joker doesnt seem like the type to get with alcoholics. shes not even that hot to make up for it
>>714220969 (OP)>ThematicallyKasumire
>>714229181the ending to this is so stupid on both ends. rip to the mangaka though.
but come on. anime, MC acts like a total prick to break up with junior girl. manga was just a complete asspull and she gets pity fucked by two guys. comfy manga though. pretty sure it's not intentionally but reading the manga was nice as you see madoka chill the fuck out as the story goes by.
>>714221436>skin tight suit gives he fat ass>bikini makes her look like a malnourished paraplegicwhy?
>>714229256>the way you get with futaba could be considered grooming in the westkino albeit
>takemi kinda just throws herself at him for helping herkino albeit
>>714226314This. I dont agree with other pairings being better because pairing Ann with anyone other than Joker is equally shit and retarded. Ann sees Ryuji as a retarded lil brother and nothing more.
>>714229256ann goes from alright to insanely fucking retarded QUICK like damn it's not even funny
Doesn't Strikers imply that Joker remains an eligible bachelor
>>714228860Tsundere is a shit anime trope no one likes
>>714229524>>714229046Both of these things? Makoto's fault.
>>714229569She just felt like the least boring romance to me even if she was generic tsundere. All the other girls were snore inducing.
>>714229474I didn't used to have a problem with it early on but then later I start to realize "Oh wait they're literally all Makoto fags, every one of them"
>>714229339I have literally never seen this series, but she really gets fucked by two guys?
>>714221121>slopfuck you, sick of you faggots calling everything "slop", shut the fuck up already
>>714229525Basically every spinoff implies that the MC never started dating anyone. Yukari and Aigis do canonically love the P3 protag though.
>>714220969 (OP)Ann, and anyone who disagrees is faggot and a retard
>>714229929Jesus Christ, how much did this cost?
>>714229757The Makoto wank does get annoying
>>714229929>wasting money to play a character in a shit game when you can use the character for 80-110 hours in a real game for a one time purchaseKill all gachatards
>>714225971why is her romance route just you and her being busybodies over some literal npc working a job then? its hardly romantic. they barely even do anything hinting at romance outside of that. ann literally ask what type of girls you like during the hawaii trip and she gets excited when the gang talks about getting married and you respond positively
>>714223361>red nailsThe biggest fucking sin. Why not black? It is much, much sexier.
Fuck you, Atlus. Fuck you so fucking much
>>714220969 (OP)Out of those? Futaba
Out of all the P5 girls? Lavenza is literally his soulmate.
Is Tae's romance anything to write home about? I've never done it but she's really hot
Should I play P3R or P5R?
Already played the original for both over a decade ago.
>>714220969 (OP)Who cares, the romances barely matter which is why scenes like Makoto hiding behind him draws so much autism out of people
>>714230348So true. Never liked red polish.
>>714230353Persona romances are literally 5-10 minute scenes at the end of a 100+ hour game, none of them are anything special.
>>7142303683R is basically a new game, so that one. Honestly Iโd skip both if youโve played the originals.
>>714230237Except that joker isnt a character in his own game lol
>>714220969 (OP)Thematically? Makoto. She fucking sucks as a character, but she's the most fitting pairing for Joker.
>>714229525And the dancing game has a decoration in Joker's room he can only get by fucking Kawakami, so what? Spin offs aren't canon.
>>714230368>Already played the original for both over a decade agoP5R.
P3R unironically ruins the entire vibe of 3.
>>714230348Me personally im voting for dark blue
>>714230489anon-kun... after you helped me fix that vending machine... I... I feel...
>Finish your sentence, bitch.>>Let's have babies, baby>Woah, mama! I'm not ready for that kind of a choice!oh, a-anon-kun! you do feel that way...! let's have (1) kiss and then never mention this again! (except for valentines day)
>>714226647>>714228527Holy based. Haruโs crush on Ren is so overt and obvious compared to literally any of the other girls, and theyโre a nice pair for each other. The cafe dream is also cute.
>SumireRen hardly knows the real her, also to me itโs retarded that she would get to be with her idolized senpai husbando after third semester meanwhile the PT have to deal with their loved ones getting killed off again. Or maybe thatโs just me.
>>714220969 (OP)Sae. But since shes not available then the next best thing Makoto. Aka the key to Sae. Also, Sumire's coach was hot af too, forgot her name. But the only hag worth Joker is Sae.
>>714220969 (OP)Kawakami because she fits the theme of rebellion the best.
>>714230368play p3r if you arent gonna be a fag about indoor lighting
play p5r if you want to play p5 again with an extra palace at the end
1. Sumire
2. Ann
3. Futaba
Theres no way a person whose life goal is being a goody two shoes cop is a good fit for a naturally rebellious man that never showed any signs of wanting to settle down and live like a japanese normie salaryman
>>714230997How
Genuine question btw, im a brainlet
>>714230673This is actually uncannily accurate. I really wish future Persona games would have relationships actually matter beyond getting the final link rank and a couple of pre-set date days.
>>714228754Even if she starts using reddit vidya linguo during sex?
>>714220969 (OP)They're all pretty awful, but Hifumi is the least awful choice.
>>714231598Marrying your adult teacher/maid/prostitute as a high schooler is wack as fuck
>>714220969 (OP)Futaba because then Sojiro becomes your dad for real
Makoto is going into law enforcement, and I'd always imagined Joker ending up as a sort of Ace Attorney style defense attorney complete with whacky supernatural powers. But I'd personally be too busy endlessly impregnating Futaba to worry about what's "thematic".
>>714227347Hime cut is too powerful in Japan.
I'm actually curious what the American version of this is. Strong long blonde independent woman?
>>714220969 (OP)The male.
LGBTQIA++ franchise.
>>714228174Its true, name one girl with twin tails who won the MC's heart.

>>714226620That's because her base stats are pretty meh.
>>714230353She tongue kisses you at the bar and then takes you up to your room to fuck. She's explicitly the only adult romance who doesn't five a damn about your age.
>>714220969 (OP)Well, none of the adult women, for starters, because Joker is a minor and that would be statutory rape. Of the remaining options, while Futaba is technically legally allowed to be in a sexual relationship with Joker I would personally morally condemn it as she is quite a bit younger than him and literally not even in the same school as him. This leaves Ann, Makoto, Haru, and Kasumi. Of these candidates, Ann is a basket case, a landmine woman (jirai-onna as they are called in Japanese), so I would caution against Joker pairing up with her as well. The remaining candidates are quite strong, but Makoto, although she seems to come from a fairly stable background, very likely (almost definitely) has daddy issues. This is nice in the short term, but we all know where that leads. Haru, too, suffers from this same issue; however, this is a unique case as she basically killed him with her own hands, so it likely doesn't have the same impact. Also she's rich. Therefore, I would be compelled to suggest Joker pair up with Haru, his true soulmate.
>>714220969 (OP)Ann and Makoto, most often at the same time.
>>714220969 (OP)Depends on the day.

i just romance all of them and have them all gang bang me on valentines day
>>714249487You're talking about the conversation in the 3rd semester right? She's actually referring to the time you chased her around in Shibuya after she got into a fight with Kamoshida over the phone

>lean in to kiss each other
>glasses clink
>>714229048>>714220969 (OP)I dated Takemi, but for a canon route, I'd say Futaba
Sojiro kinda coyly pushes you towards it in his Rank 10, and Futaba has got it bad for you in her Rank 9, even calling you after you put her down gently to really clarify what you meant by "teammates" as if she wanted to make sure there really was no shot with you
Even if your teammates leave or go on to do other things, I like the idea of Narukami and Joker settling down in the towns their games take place in, as a sort of anchor for everyone to come back to, and Joker taking over the cafe really fits into that imagery pretty comfortably
>>714254870>Sojiro kinda coyly pushes you towards it in his Rank 10I've seen people say "he actually means as a son not as a son-in-law"
It's fucking insane the mental gymnastics people go through to moral grandstand on dating Futaba. Me personally I just hate her so I don't ever romance her
>>714226314>fucking dogshit it's obviously done by people who want to sabotage ship other characters away and protect Makoto. Every time it's a Makoto fag.Yeah, in your head
>>714255153>Me personally I just hate her so I don't ever romance herBased
>>714254828Ngl, watching her melt like a snowball in Arizona was hot as hell.
>>714234945>need more giant MakotoI gotchu pham.
>>714220969 (OP)Unfortunately, Atlus ships him with Makoto due to one of the producers having Makoto as his waifu. I myself prefer Tae tho.
>>714220969 (OP)It would be Haru if she were more fleshed out and present throughout the game. The adults are all just anime fantasy meant for the player more than Joker as a character. So I'm going with Hifumi because, assuming all social links maxed out, she's the only same-aged love interest that Joker isn't forced to associate with. But he decided it was worth spending all that time with her anyway.
>>714220969 (OP)His teacher-maid-wife of course. Her dates are the absolute cutest.
>>714220969 (OP)He's canonically gay, so...
>>714220969 (OP)Anne is best for my dick which is all that matters.

>Devil Arcana, Jokers evolved persona is the Devil>Both had ties to Shido>puts in the most work getting Joker out of prison>ONLY romance option that doesn't scold/tell off Joker for being a horny teenager, recognises and accepts it>ONLY woman in the history of fiction and non-fiction to recognise and accept that her man is too good for HER
>>714229046They rewrote Haru's personality at the last second, just watch the original game's intro where she's portrayed as a bored girl who likes candy.
>>714220969 (OP)Sae.

>>714230904My last couple games, which has admittedly been a few years, I've always leaned toward Haru.

I think realistically Joker is an incel with no real friends.
The entire game is just a figment of his imagination. Nothing about it makes any sense. He gets put on probation and... ends up living in a cafe? What?

>>714226314It feels like pairing Ryuji with Yukari. It's just fucking wrong. The same people who pair Ann with Ryuji tend to pair Futaba with Yusuke too, so that's all you need to know.

>>714271096I mistyped Ryuji with Yukari, when I meant to post Junpei. As for the Yukari stuff... To be fair, none of the female characters kind of hang out with the P3 protagonist until way later in the story. Everyone has their own stuff going on for like the first 60%, aside from little parts like the beach stuff. Junpei is the only one who really forces interactions, and that's mostly because he's unpopular and really wants to be a part of things, until he starts getting jealous.

>>714270807It's fictional, for one, and two, the people complaining are the new evolution of the fundamentalist religious loons. They exist to bitch about anything that doesn't adhere to their strict worldview, and their take on relationship dynamics is from the 19th century.

>>714247581She's only a year younger than him. Zoomers are fucked in the head when it comes to age differences.
>>714272835Are you literally me?
I could see Joker becomingna politician thanks to Yoshida's confidant, in which case Makoto with make sens ewith her becoming a police commissioner.
Opening a coffee shop together with Haru also fits.
The ones that I personally think would make the most sense in canon are
>Futaba
>Takemi
>Lavenza
>>714272971Joker becoming a politician is strongly implied. The outfit that Satanael wears, the one with the star on the side? That's the outfit of the Prime Minister of Japan. Joker was, in essence, "elected" by the people of Tokyo.
>>714229929Those are either tiny hands or a fuckhuge gun.
>>714272909>Zoomers are fucked in the head when it comes to age differences.it's all performative social media nonsense, nobody cares irl
>>714273187Her smile melts my heart.
>>714272904>Give her a bonus scene in the Valentine OVA>Don't add a pity scene with her in RoyalI'm still mad
Tae probably sucks you off on the first date
Futaba would be realistic for Joker. Takemi would also be an interesting choice because she's older but her gothic/edgy aura suits someone like Joker. Lavenza loves Joker to death and she's more a lolibaba than a pure child like Nanako.
Ann doesn't have much chemistry with Joker, Makoto is very boring., like Gwen Stacy as Peter Parker's love interest during the Romita Sr. days. Haru is okay. Chihaya would be interesting as an alternative. Hifumi I'm indifferent about. Ohya is interesting but there are more intriguing paths than her. Kawakami is interesting but I don't think she has the edge of someone like Takemi. Kasumi/Sumire is okay but a generic choice.
>>714220969 (OP)This has been decided for nearly a decade.
You can't keep asking the same question until you get the answer you want.
>>714271635Someone needs to tell Ann she should cut back on the sweets while on vacation!

>>714220969 (OP)I know people get mad when you say that that the remake girl is canon, but Sumire was practically made to be Joker's girlfriend in mind.
Just look at the confession scene, all the other girls have this Schrodinger confession where, despite the hints, if you choose not to pursue them, they act as if Joker was always just their friends. Sumire actually goes the extra mile into confessing herself before. That alone makes her the one that deserves it the most.

It's simple logic.
>>714254870>>714220969 (OP)Haru is the only one who is explicitly in love with MC-kun and not his Joker persona. She was in love with him before the events of the game really started.
>>714270697Tae and Makoto are built for that but they get offended when you ask them to hurt you.
>>714231717it's never happening

>>714279004Tae is also into being hurt
>>714278547Futaba is in love with him too. You just can trick her into believing that her feelings are because "they are good teammates"
>>714274839It does in this case. They're the perfect match, both aesthetically and personally.
>>714220969 (OP)Takemi and Kawakami threesome of course
>>714280309Sure, but you could argue with her it's because you're literally the first decent guy who hangs out with her.
Haru has no such limitations - she fell in love with Joker despite being the creme of the crop.
>>714278547>explicitly in love with MC-kun and not his Joker personaThe non-PT girls never meet him as Joker
>>714223168Not wrong but I always figured the "canon" end will always be zero romance because being the leader they shouldn't compromise their role and dragging in outside people when shit could go side ways at any moment is just straight up irresponsible
Only reason we get so much romance in these games is the fans are generally losers and will buy your game just for the feature.

>>714221239Her design is 10/10, but I don't like her purely for the fact that she's boring, the rest of the team up until Futaba turn into complete retards just to make her look smart when most of her "intelligence" are basic observation anyone with a functioning brain could notice like "this bank vault looks like a bank vault", and probably my biggest gripe is that her social link, the main time where you'd be trying to get an idea of who she is, isn't even about her and is about some literal NPC that is completely irrelevant to Makoto outside of the S.Link scenes.
Why did Maruki become a cab driver of all things?
I fell in love with Makoto when she was following me around trying to pretend she was reading a magazine

>>714277210I see them as good friends who probably try to whole "dating" thing for a bit and realize it won't work in the long run, but are still perfectly amicable with each other after breaking it off.
Futaba is so much better than Nanako.
She is young enough to be immoral but old enough to lewd her without major backslash.

>>714220969 (OP)Akechi and it's not even close
The whole fucking game builds up this 'just two gays pretending to be flatmates' vibe with them
There's tons of dialogue where Akechi playfully commits to the homofaggery
You can take him on Jazz diner dates
Royal then adds a whole chapter where he becomes your boyfriend and insists on a reality where you can be happy so hard that it'd kill him
The final cutscene of the game doesn't show Joker putting it in any of these broads but has him wishing for Akechi, who appears.
>>714287789>Makoto threatening to kill Joker if he cheats on herAs long as it's through asphyxiation
>>714288004Wasn't Akechi pretending all along to kill him later for being more of a chad than him?

You also gotta remember Akechi is, in truth, a little edgelord, so saying he wants to kill Joker is as much a confession as anything else.
>>714288563I agree with you completely and want you to know you're based.
>>714274602Yes exactly

>>714290982This
Nips are terrified of ever finalizing a relationship, because otakus uncontrollably sob and seethe if their waifu has sex in any possible universe.
>>714269280>Complete bitch and suck up teacher pet before recruitmentShe hated being that way as well, but played the part of the ideal student so as to not be a burden on Sae. There are short glimpses of her being fed up with playing that part before she's recruited as well -- where you can see her trying to give pushback without stepping too harshly on toes she is afraid should not be steppd on, for her sister's sake.
>>714231831That pretty much makes my cock harder into wanting to discipline her.
>>714289341Ann never got raped. Her issues will be her horrible eating habits and eventually having to deal with horny producers and editors to further her modeling/acting career.
>>714223717>Makoto is too much of a hardassIf you actually follow her backstory and listen to the details, you'll figure out she admired her father as a policeman for dispensing justice regardless of the system being broken. She's not a hardass. Her being a stickler for the rules is just a mask she presented to the school. At heart she's actually more the Dirty Harry type, but she has a lot of trouble letting go of the nerd image.
>>714289958Yeah, Haru, Futaba and Sumire are the least subtle about their feelings and you can't really friendzone them without it feeling like a straight up rejection. Futaba MAYBE but I also feel like she has the strongest feelings for Joker of anyone, like he's her entire world in that moment.
>>714249548It's a real shame Strikers was being developed at the same time as Royal, she would really benefit from the extended epilogue that is that game. It certainly did wonders for Haru.
>>714224218>The Lovers arcana is called that for a reasonIt's called the Lovers but the arcana has zero to do with love.
The Lovers is about making a choice, one door closing and another opening. About being steadfast about your choice. Or in its reversed position: feeling stuck and being unable to choose and move forward.
This is thematic for Ann throughout P5.
>makotofag enters the thread
>>714292435Who tf pays attention to the dialogue in Persona?
I play it to masturbate to prostitutes and dommy mommies.
Futaba definitely feels like the canon pick to me. There's just so much set up around her and Joker that the other girls just don't have, like Sojiro and the fact that Futaba's confidant is ACTUALLY about her and not some vaguely related third party crisis you solve together.
>>714293878>and not some vaguely related third party crisis you solve togetherHer old friend from elementary who's getting whored out by her parents
>>714294048Thats more of detour than the central focus unlike many of the other confidants
>>714294048That's a small 2 rank part of her story, and actually ties to Futaba finding her voice. The same way I don't deduct points for the Shiho part of Ann's confidant, that ACTUALLY matters for Ann's character. Makoto's shit is like a random sidequest though.

>>714281986True. Haru has demons.
Her initial persona is Milady De Winter, the original femme fatale.
Her mythological persona Astarte is the original temptress who would play men like a fiddle and set them against each other for her favor.
And her final persona Lucy Hay, countess of Carlile. The famous turn coat aiding both sides during the reign of Charles the First and the Second Civil War.
That should be telling.
Strikers/Scramble also doubles down on it by making her an adrenaline junkie with road-rage issues.
>>714283813>Why did Maruki become a cab driver of all things?He helps people go where they have to be. Where THEY decide they have to be; not him.

>>714295105Based Mark. It's sad how long it took for Atlus to let us really do it.
>>714258486i thought it was just me. but it helps that i like basically everything else about her as well. cute design and outfits, very sweet personality, nice s.link, cool ultimate persona design, psy is my second favorite element. honestly realizing that the devs almost deliberately wrote her to have a crush on mc was vindicating
>>714295105I guess Mark got with his hag wife and fucked off after 1 because he's never appeared since (aside from Trish's show in P3)

>>714291935Calm down retard.
>>714296108they made up for it in 3. Also do you get the Toriumi social link in Portable if playing as FeMC? I know she has a bunch of unique ones.
>>714295025>erratically and borderline murderouslyBorderline? She cross-countries Japan in a record time that leaves a seasoned highway cop like Zenkichi reeling, wondering how anyone would be able to pull that off without utter and total disregard for anything but flooring the gas pedal. He couldn't do that in a suped up police chaser. While she did it in a fucking worn down camper.
It has the entire gang flatly stating they are never ever, not even in a million years, going to allow her behind the wheel to drive them again - period. Which she herself then follows up on by naively smiling and asking: "really, come on? it wasn't that bad - was it?"
... which heavily implies she felt the limits of what was tolerable had actually not been breached yet.
is there any reason why makotofags are like that? im not even trying to start shit im genuinely curious

Also funny that Kenji and Nozomi get no FemC love.

Just jumping in to say that Tae is not only the cutest, but also the sexiest. She has very practical means of helping others and has been doing so for a while. Outside of the lecture you're going to get on sexual sanitation for sticking it in her ass, you know she'd be the best in bed too.

>>714297890Nigga why are you acting so serious about a porn post
>>714297034She looks like the most used of goods in a game with a handjob maid and a sloopy drunkard. I'm not cucked enough to settle for that.
>>714296463I liked her
She had yuri vibes.
Kinda strung out, desperate yuri vibes, but toxic yuri is nice, too
>no scene where the gang finds out who you picked
>no scene of Ann and Makoto freaking the fuck out because you fucked your teacher right in her hairy hag pussy
>>714298046If you can't be serious about a porn post, when can you be serious
>>714277487>>714276790>>714275956Based Hifumi Chads.
Best skills and funny when artistically playing shogi.
>>714226314stay mad dumb cat
>>714220969 (OP)Nigga is a self-insert, I choose Haru.
>>714294997So he took on a trash job he's overqualified for because it had a symbolic meaning?
>>714306341For someone who almost destroyed all free will forever I'd say he's lucky to be qualified to be a cabbie
>>7142661805 has the worst party members but the best non-party members.
>>714220969 (OP)It's been a while, at the start I thought about the prosecutor lady, but that's not possible. I found Ann to be the most attractive and I guess she would have the deepest bond with Joker, rescuing her from that grooming dynamic. In my playthrough I went with Kasumi for some reason... I think she was the most straightforward and made the first move, I liked that a lot.
>>714287248>threesome with Takemi and Kawakami>Becky wants to please her master so the good doctor helps her out
>>714220969 (OP)Don't care, I'd be the best fit inside Kawakami
If Atlus were forced to choose a canon romance, it'd definitely be Ann.
In reality, you can easily identify the best girl in 3-5 because they call you "senpai"
Tae acting like a dommy bitch when she's four feet tall is hilarious
None.
Canon wife is in Strikers.
Futaba is the only choice because everyone else is a normie and she's probably got a 5-digit post count on /d/.
>>714312051>redditShe is literally named after the backend software of imageboards. She's a living 2ch reference.
>>714311261that's not sophia though
>>714312694Isnt she browsing a Chan while waiting to see the news of Joker beimg caught?
>>714312853She went back to Ichinose.
>>714312898I know she's browsing boards and forums, which in the context of Japan pretty certainly means imageboards, but I can't remember if she specifically mentions or shows one. There were a whole bunch of other references in her design I can no longer remember, but tl;dr Futaba is the stinky Japanese NEET imageboard user while also being Le Ebin Hacker on Steroids American imageboard user.
